[Esip-sample-curation] Review of SPNHC 2022 poster

[Sarah Ramdeen]

Wow. Thank you all for helping complete the poster.  You all are amazing
and I really appreciate it.  I am going to consider the poster complete and
submit it to SPNHC, but if anyone sees any critical errors, let me know and
I can see if I can replace it.

Thanks again!
Sarah
